Does shadcn CLI provide telemetry?
Does the shadcn CLI provide any telemetry mechanism?
Perfect! These are just unrelated code comments about path segments. Now I have a complete picture.
##Answer
No, the shadcn CLI does not provide any telemetry mechanism.
Based on my analysis of the source code in the packages/shadcn directory, here's what I found:
-
No telemetry dependencies: The
package.jsoncontains no telemetry-related packages like PostHog, Segment, Mixpanel, Google Analytics, Sentry, Amplitude, or similar services. -
No telemetry code: A comprehensive search of the CLI source code found no telemetry tracking functions, event logging, or analytics code.
-
No environment variables: There are no telemetry-related environment variables (like
TELEMETRY,NO_TELEMETRY,DO_NOT_TRACK, etc.) in the codebase. -
No documentation: Neither the README nor the changelog mention telemetry.
The shadcn CLI is built with the following core dependencies:
commander- for CLI argument parsingprompts- for interactive promptszod- for schema validation- Various file system and code transformation utilities
But nothing for data collection or telemetry. The tool is purely focused on adding components to your project locally without any tracking or analytics capabilities.
